I have tried to use dump with this command:

dump -0au -h 0 -d 61000 -f /dev/nrsa0 /home

When what appears to be the end of tape is reached I get this error message:

 DUMP: write error 3725120 blocks into volume 1

and a choice to restart or abort. I've done this a number of times with the
same error message except for the block number. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks, Sam

Use dump(8) so it splits across multiple tapes.
